Finally the digital piano arrives

I realized that I made a smart decision NOT buying a digital piano at BestBuy and instead getting it from Amazon.com. The box arrived at 8:00 pm (the latest UPS delivery happened to me, ever) when I heard the UPS truck driver playing loud pop country music parking right in front of the front door of my place.

BTW, that truck driver has a pretty damn awesome audio system installed in the truck.

After signed the package, I tried to move the box to my room at second floor. I couldn't. The package was simply too darn heavy. So eventually I decided to open the box and move all the parts piece by piece to the second floor. Still, the piano (Yamaha DGX-630) was very heavy to carry around.

It took me about 30 minutes to set the piano up. And then, I found out that I underestimate how huge the piano is. So I had to reshuffle myself, like moving my digital drumset to the corner (sorry, V-Drum Lite), and such, but eventually got everything set up. I even installed the Mac driver and used the new piano to record some tunes in GarageBand. Neat.

So far I like the piano, and looking forward to spend a lot of time learning how to use it in optimal way. And also, use it to practice, like, lots of practice.

I only complain, though, is that it does NOT come with the USB cable. Sure any standard USB AB type cable will work, but if I already spent US$799 on a gear, why can't they just throw in a USB cable, which cost them less than 50 cents? Whatever.
